    Azerbaijani ambassador to U.S. Elin Suleymanov has held several
    meetings with Illinois officials during his visit to Illinois, U.S,
    the Azerbaijani embassy to the U.S told Trend.

    Representatives of various state agencies, businessmen, members of
    the Turkish community, as well as the Australian and Israeli Consuls
    General in Chicago attended the working lunch, given by Speaker
    Michael Madigan in honour of the Azerbaijani diplomat.

    In his speech, the ambassador talked about the geo-strategic position
    of Azerbaijan's foreign policy orientation and relations between the
    two countries. Suleymanov called the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline
    as the U.S. most successful project in the region. He stressed the
    importance of expressing the political support by the U.S. and other
    energy projects which are on the agenda and in particular, TANAP.

    The ambassador met with Illinois governor Pat Quinn. The sides
    exchanged views on possible cooperation between Illinois and
    Azerbaijan. The governor said that mutual investments and the
    establishment of the relations between their respective universities
    will be useful.

    The Azerbaijani ambassador also addressed teachers and students of
    the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy which is
    considered to be one of the U.S most prestigious universities.

    Suleymanov informed the participants about the successful oil diplomacy
    of our country, infrastructure and energy projects which are on the
    agenda. The ambassador added that Armenia's involvement in these
    projects will be useful for full regional integration. However the
    main condition is the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
    settlement within Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.
